Cobalt Vertex Cutting Shears
The foundation of this professional set is the Cobalt Vertex cutting shears with its revolutionary slide-cutting design. The specialized YKC hybrid blade combines Hamaguri-ha precision with Sasa-ha fluidity for unmatched versatility across cutting techniques.
The curved blade profile glides effortlessly through any hair type, from precision lines to textured layers. Unlike specialized shears that excel at just one technique, the Vertex adapts to your approach—whether you're creating geometric lines, point cutting, or slide cutting through layers.
Size Options:
5.5": Perfect for detail work and stylists with smaller hands
6.0": Our most versatile size for balanced control and efficiency
6.5": Ideal for longer styles and stylists with larger hands
Cobalt Texturizing Shears
Paired with your Vertex cutting shears, select the texturizing shears that perfectly complement your cutting style and clientele:
Finesse (15% Cut Ratio): Creates subtle, virtually invisible texturing perfect for fine hair and precision finishing. Ideal for stylists who need delicate weight removal without sacrificing volume.
Blend (20% Cut Ratio): The versatile all-rounder providing perfect balance between weight removal and volume retention. Our most popular choice for everyday texturizing across various hair types.
Sculptor (30% Cut Ratio): Delivers significant weight reduction for transforming thick, heavy hair. Ideal for stylists who work with dense hair types requiring substantial bulk removal.
Professional-Grade Features
Balanced Ergonomics
Both shears in your set feature identical ergonomic design and balance, creating a consistent feel when transitioning between cutting and texturizing. The offset handles with removable finger rests allow customization based on your cutting style and reduce hand fatigue during long sessions.
Precision Click-Lock Tension
The specialized ball-bearing tension system provides micro-adjustable control with perfect consistency across both shears. Each click delivers precise, measurable tension adjustment that won't drift during use—maintaining your exact preference throughout the day.
Professional Balance Calibration
Juntetsu's master craftsmen meticulously balance each pair of shears for perfect weight distribution. This precision calibration ensures fluid movement and reduces wrist strain during extended use, allowing you to work with confident control across all techniques.
Professional Opinion
"I invested in the Cobalt Vertex Professional Set about 3 months ago after years of switching between different shears for cutting and texturizing. Having a matched set has completely transformed my workflow.
The Vertex cutting shears are incredibly versatile. I do everything from precision bobs to shaggy layers, and they handle it all beautifully. The slide cutting performance is exceptional—just glides through the hair without any pushing or resistance.
I went with the Blend texturizers (20%) since most of my clients need that middle-ground texturizing. The transition between the two tools is seamless—same weight, same feel, same tension. It's like they're literally made for each other (because they are!).
The VG-10 cobalt steel is no joke. After 3 months of daily use in a busy salon, both pairs are still razor sharp. The tension adjustment stays exactly where I set it, which is rare for texturizing shears especially.
The premium kit is actually worth it too. The texturizing razor has become an essential part of my finishing work. Even the carbon fiber comb has become my go-to—it's heat resistant and perfect for blowouts.
Having the same-size matched set makes such a difference in my cutting flow. No more adjusting my grip or technique when switching tools. For stylists who do a variety of work throughout the day, I can't recommend this set enough. Your hands will thank you, and your clients will notice the difference in your cutting precision."

Japan Scissors supports customers with clear shipping, return and warranty information. Eligible U.S. orders may ship from the U.S., Japan, Australia or approved supply partners depending on stock and the fastest reliable route.
Returns and exchanges are available within 30 days of delivery with return authorization. Approved U.S. returns are processed through our Laguna Beach, California returns address.
Warranty support is brand and model specific, and applies to confirmed manufacturing defects. Normal dulling, tension adjustment, wear, misuse, chemical damage and improper sharpening are not warranty defects.
Before judging sharpness, check the tension. New professional shears can feel loose or tight after shipping, and a small tension adjustment often fixes hair folding, pushing or uneven cutting.
Clean and dry the blades after use, oil the pivot area, and avoid cutting paper, fabric, plastic, wire or anything other than hair. Use a professional sharpener familiar with hair shears.
I am genuinely impressed! I’ve purchased a lot of professional scissors over the years, but I’ve honestly never seen packaging and presentation at this level. From the moment I opened the box, everything felt premium—from the beautiful leather case and cleaning accessories to the certificate of authenticity and attention to every little detail.
The craftsmanship is outstanding. You can tell these scissors were made with pride and precision. Every accessory is thoughtfully included, and the quality exceeds my expectations. It’s rare to find a company that puts this much care into both the product and the customer experience.
If the performance matches the incredible first impression, these will easily be the best scissors I’ve ever owned. So far, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Highly recommended to anyone looking for true professional quality. Thank you for creating such an exceptional product!
Bought Ichiro scissors a couple years ago. I’m ready for a Japanese made one. I’ve decided on Juntetsu and lucky me it was on sale and fit my budget. It’s definitely a step up from my previous scissors. It cuts very clean (wet cutting); I can see the difference after the hair dries- more neat.
Love the pouch that comes with it. I don’t regret buying this. And this company has been my go to for hair shears.
Love my new shears. The color is beautiful, slightly more gold than rose which I am perfectly happy about. My only complaint is that I feel like the end of the shears aren't quite as sharp, but they may just need to be tightened slightly.
I owned three pairs of “Sword” scissors. Kamisori, sensei Fit and now Juntetsu.
I like the smooth cutting feeling of Kamisori. It lasts 5 years. Sensei Fit seems more durable but it isn’t as sharp and smooth as the others. I don’t know how durable this pair of shear last. I purchased it last week. It cuts sharp and smooth. Slightly sharper than Kamisori. They are all very light and balanced shears
Bought these to reduce the strain with the heavy pairs but I was worried it would be too light and not cut. Leave it to Japan to make something half the weight and twice the strength and cutting performance . Balance is top notch . Has made in japan so you known it’s real
Been using Juntetsu since 2019! Just replaced my 6.0” pair I dropped. You can totally get 5000 cuts from these. Japanese shears are the only choice. The best
literally just finished my first full day with these and im in love 😍 was nervous about the 7 inch length coming from 5.5 but it actually makes sectioning so much faster! did 3 fades today and my hand doesn’t even hurt. Arrived fast too 👍
Im obsessed with these juntetsu scissors! These looks beautifully at my station. And they perform all my precision layering and I also do a lot of detailed bob work and these give me great control. 🌈
Still pretty new to the game but my mentor told me to invest in good shears early. These VG10s were def a budget stretch. but what a difference. Only been using them about 3 months but they're still crazy sharp. Gonna be my main shears for sure.
Saturday order received on Friday in SG. It wasn't as good as I had hoped. My old scissors was pulling hair as I thinned the hair roots hair and cutting my hair shorter as well. I'm not sure if it's intended to be this way. The new pair of scissors are worth the cost to have this kind of high-end quality. I am happy with the silky smooth and thinning motion.
Super light! I have been a barber for 5+ years and I am honestly surprised by how light and sturdy these are. Sharp cuts, but the big win for me is lightweight and good ergonomics for my wrist and elbow.
The shears are sharp
My professional sharper makes the convex in this moment better
I have to went use the distance of the fingerstand of the shear a little to close
Not as sharp as I thought they would be. I can hear the cutting which leads me to believe they are dull. When I cut the hair I should not hear the blade cut the hair, it should be smooth and quiet.
I purchased Juntetsu cobalt sword shears. Their weight is just right. They are well balanced in my hand. They are very sharp and purposeful. These are my new favorite shears. My order was processed very quickly and arrived within 3 days of ordering
